Photon uses several other libraries, which fall under a variety of licenses:
*OpenAL support is optional, if OpenAL is not found, photon can be compiled without it. This is done so that those wishing to keep their application free of LGPL libraries may do so while still using photon.
Understanding and complying with Open Source licenses can be a daunting task, but in this case is rather simple. If you are distributing an application which uses photon and it's dependencies you must do the following:
If you comply with all three licenses (don't take credit for what you didn't do, credit Freetype and OpenAL, and provide the LGPL and a link to OpenAL's source you can do what you wish with your application, including make it closed source and/or sell it)
For convenience I have written a licensing template that should satisfy most users of photon. It is essentially what I would use in distributing any binaries made with photon and it's dependencies. (Note: I credit the zlib libraries which isn't necessary but I feel it's proper.)
--------EXAMPLE CREDITS FILE This application uses Photon which is available from http://photon.sourceforge.net/ and is licensed under a zlib license.

| Class | RTF::TableRowNode |
| In: |
lib/rtf/node.rb
|
| Parent: | ContainerNode |
This class represents a row within an RTF table. The TableRowNode is a specialised container node that can hold only TableCellNodes and, once created, cannot be resized. Its also not possible to change the parent of a TableRowNode object.
This is the constructor for the TableRowNode class.
| table: | A reference to table that owns the row. |
| cells: | The number of cells that the row will contain. |
| widths: | One or more integers specifying the widths for the table columns |
# File lib/rtf/node.rb, line 649 649: def initialize(table, cells, *widths) 650: super(table) do 651: entries = [] 652: cells.times do |index| 653: entries.push(TableCellNode.new(self, widths[index])) 654: end 655: entries 656: end 657: end
This method assigns a border width setting to all of the sides on all of the cells within a table row.
| width: | The border width setting to apply. Negative values are ignored and zero switches the border off. |
# File lib/rtf/node.rb, line 670 670: def border_width=(width) 671: self.each {|cell| cell.border_width = width} 672: end
This method overloads the parent= method inherited from the Node class to forbid the alteration of the cells parent.
| parent: | A reference to the new node parent. |
# File lib/rtf/node.rb, line 679 679: def parent=(parent) 680: RTFError.fire("Table row nodes cannot have their parent changed.") 681: end
This method generates the RTF document text for a TableCellNode object.
# File lib/rtf/node.rb, line 702 702: def to_rtf 703: text = StringIO.new 704: temp = StringIO.new 705: offset = 0 706: 707: text << "\\trowd\\tgraph#{parent.cell_margin}" 708: self.each do |entry| 709: widths = entry.border_widths 710: colour = entry.shading_colour 711: 712: text << "\n" 713: text << "\\clbrdrt\\brdrw#{widths[0]}\\brdrs" if widths[0] != 0 714: text << "\\clbrdrl\\brdrw#{widths[3]}\\brdrs" if widths[3] != 0 715: text << "\\clbrdrb\\brdrw#{widths[2]}\\brdrs" if widths[2] != 0 716: text << "\\clbrdrr\\brdrw#{widths[1]}\\brdrs" if widths[1] != 0 717: text << "\\clcbpat#{root.colours.index(colour)}" if colour != nil 718: text << "\\cellx#{entry.width + offset}" 719: temp << "\n#{entry.to_rtf}" 720: offset += entry.width 721: end 722: text << "#{temp.string}\n\\row" 723: 724: text.string 725: end

NAME
sisusb - SiS USB video driverSYNOPSIS
Section N'34'DeviceN'34' Identifier N'34'devnameN'34' Driver N'34'sisusbN'34' ... EndSection
DESCRIPTION
sisusb is an Xorg driver for SiS (Silicon Integrated Systems) video chips that are connected via a Net2280-based USB dongle. The driver is not accelerated, but provides support for colordepths of 8, 16 and 24 bpp as well as Render and other extensions.SUPPORTED HARDWARE
The sisusb driver supports USB video cards based on the following chipsets:SiS315E/PRO
The SiS315E/PRO features two CRT controllers. However, in its USB version, only the first output, referred to as "CRT1", is being used.
CONFIGURATION DETAILS
Please refer to xorg.conf(5) for general configuration details and to sis(4) for more information. This manpage only covers a subset of the supported options.Detailed information on all supported options can be obtained at http://www.winischhofer.at/linuxsisusbvga.shtml
Please note that this driver requires a Linux kernel driver as well which is included in Linux 2.6.12 and later, as well as available at the aforementioned website.
The following driver Options are supported:
- Option N'34'HWCursorN'34' N'34'booleanN'34'
- Enable or disable the hardware cursor. It is not recommended to disable the hardware cursor as this will increase the amount of data transferred over the USB. Default: HWCursor is on.
- Option N'34'SWCursorN'34' N'34'booleanN'34'
- The opposite of HWCursor. This enables or disables the software cursor. This sort of cursor is slower because the pointer must be painted into the graphics display. This increases the amount of data transferred over the USB significantly. Default: SWCursor is off.
- Option N'34'CRT1GammaN'34' N'34'booleanN'34'
- Enable or disable gamma correction. Default: Gamma correction is on.
- Option N'34'DisconnectTimeoutN'34' N'34'integerN'34'
- This option determines how the driver will react to a disconnection of the USB device. If the integer supplied is -1, the driver will abort the X server immediately upon disconnection. If the value given is 0, the driver will probe for a re-connection every 2 seconds and in case the device is detected, re-establish the display. If the value is greater than 0, the driver will do this re-probing within the given number of seconds and abort the server if it does not detect the device within this time-out. Default: 0 (probe forever for device reconnection).

Most VirusTotal API responses are JSON-encoded with the following format:
{"data": <response data>}
This function parses the server’s response and return only the data, if the response is not in the expected format an exception is raised. For endpoints where the data is a VirusTotal object you can use
get_object()
instead.- Parameters
path (str) – Path to API endpoint, can contain format placeholders {}.
path_args – A variable number of arguments that are put into any placeholders used in path.

Like Sci-Fi? Read My New Online Fiction Series.
Do you like Sci-Fi? While I finish up my next novel, I have started an online fiction series called Forbearance. Picking up from the canteen scene in Bellicose, we meet Keius Minjen, a postal marine, as he tries to survive the battle planet Guna to exact revenge and one day liberate his homeland.
Sign-up if you want me to send you news about upcoming installments of Forbearance or my other writings.
Origins of the Families
The Quijrad and Lkrada were two important families in the Imperium who came to prominance after the Tawmeriks had overthrown the Terran Republic. The Quijrad were an Anthorph clan that had made great fortunes in interstellar piracy, and were able to fend off most attempts to end their illicit business with large bribes. The Lkrada were a merchant family who claimed, via the complex (and highly questionable) geneaologies of R. B. Muzgersun’s Human Histories to be descended from pre-Decline potentates. In reality, they were likely pirates themselves, though with an eye for the developing Imperium aristocracy.
First Quijrad-Lkrada War
There is no evidence, despite the claims of both families, of belligerant acts prior to the First Quijrad-Lkrada War. What seems to have happened is that the Quijrad were driven out of their normal area of operations by the Bafiktuy Intelligence Directive, which was now actively undermining even potential challengers to the authority of the Tawmeriks. The Quijrad, being a pragmatic clan, simply found a new set of shipping lanes, which just happened to be staked out by the Lkrada family. One must remember this was before hyperspacial travel had been made as reliable as it would later be, and ships on longer trade routes had to make regular stops to prevent the Camrid Zorom Effect.
This first conflict between the two families was brutal. Sabotage, assassination and open combat all played a part, but neither family was able to destroy or dislodge the other. It was the shadowy figure, Charl Bovit, who seems to have been under orders from the Tawmeriks to end this private little war (there are rumors that Bovit may have been a close relation to the Lkrada family). Whether by force of personality, familial influence, diplomatic ability or threat of Imperium involvement, the warring factions shook hands and signed a peace treaty.
Second Quijrad-Lkrada War
This peace lasted just a few short decades before it again exploded, this time over a disputed mining operation. In the interim, the Lkrada had become somewhat respectable, while the Quijrad had become rich enough that they didn’t need to be. A new element, the political aspect of their feud, had entered the scene. Politicians were bribed, and even the Emperor seems to have looked the other way as these families slaughtered each other. The media was even used as both families spent enormous sums of money trying to win over the citizens of the Imperium. The Second War had no definitive end, but petered out over a few decades.
Third Quijrad-Lkrada War
It was several centuries before open conflict broke out between the two families, now both long-standing members of the Imperial Congress. The days of piracy were long gone, or at least of the simple, direct piracy of raiding the odd transport. There is little doubt that these two families were now probably the largest criminal syndicates in the Imperium. The third war was as brutal and ugly as the last two, but due to the size of the families and their holdings, promised to last much longer, and in more venues.
From battles between their unofficial navies, to bloody street battles on dozens of systems, the Quijrad and Lkrada had finally decided to settle scores old and new, and the object seemed to be the Soro Meldur Kafrah Bank, which held the deeds to dozens of resource-exploitable systems, not to mention huges sums of money in loans to various other families and corporations. The Lkrada had made an enormous bid to buy it, and the Quijrad were determined not only to spoil the bid but to seize it for themselves.
It was Ivan Dabrian who finally brought an end to this series of destructive conflicts. He ordered the Bafiktuy Intelligence Directive to eliminate these two families at all costs. BID, with typical efficiency and secrecy did just that, bringing its own reign of terror. The Lkrada were quick to see that their long-term survival was in question, and abandoned both their bid and any offensive attacks on the Quijrad, and instead offered its services to BID. The Quijrad believed they could outgun BID, and almost did, before they were defeated in a series of very messy battles.
Aftermath
While the Lkrada clan was permitted to retain its holdings, it was banned from holding a seat on the Imperial Congress. The Quijrad, with most of its members and satellite families wiped out, was officially dissolved. The family did recover, and later distinguished itself by battling various armed racist factions during the Hundred Bloody Days and offering funding to the Popelof Project. It also made Ivan Dabrian’s reputation as a ruler who sought to uphold the laws of the Imperium, even against the wealthier families who often believed themselves immune.

As any student in computer science can tell you, linked lists of things come in really handy. Especially when you don't know ahead of time how many of the things you will need. The use of linked lists in high performance graphics however is somewhat controversial. On the one hand they provide an easy way to express dynamically extensible lists of things like vertices, on the other hand they are a bit slower to access than fixed arrays. Because of this performance hit many people believe that they have no place in an engine that expects to get the maximum rendering performance out of the system.
My philosophy on nodes is simple, they make my life easier and that is good. They make the code more flexible and that is good. They slow things down a bit, and that is bad, but since I started this project the speed of my "desktop" system has doubled, so being a bit slower is irrelevant.
Finally, the current node system creates both singly and doubly linked lists as well as sorted binary search trees with the same node structure, however there are different function calls for BSTs vs lists. This will be corrected in a later release by adding typing information to the node structure.
The following functions operated on nodes
p3dc_NODE *p3dc_new_node( void *payload, char *name, int flags )
This function allocates a new node (possibly recovering it from the node free list) and assigns its d pointer to the payload and, if name is non-null, malloc's a string to hold a copy of the name. Initially the type is unknown. The only supported flag at the moment is P3DC_NODE_FREEPAYLOAD that causes the payload pointer to be freed with a called to either p3dc_free_type or p3dc_free_list (if its type is P3DC_LIST).
void p3dc_free_node( p3dc_NODE *node )
This function frees the node passed to it, if the node has an allocated name it frees that as well. If the free_payload flag is true, it frees the payload pointer as well. If the type of node being freed is a list then p3dc_free_list is called on that node.

I started developing the mobile game last winter with no experience in android or even Git, and it was my first full project. Before Soar, I'd only coded for school assignments and small projects but I came to learn that making a project on your own involves a completely different process. There was no teacher to guide me when I got confused, so I had to find my own solutions. I got into the pattern of googling and using youtube videos effectively to make my game, and I learned to enjoy it.
The other big challenge was organizing the assets and correctly designing the animations. Perfecting sprites and background images took hours longer than I predicted. When I started developing, I hadn't considered all the resources I could have used to save time, which is what led to this mistake.
Time management, organization, and code clarity are key. Hours spent debugging weird code could have been spent breaking down the tasks into more manageable pieces first. Since I didn't have any actual experience outside of easy little coding projects, I thought I could develop the whole thing without much planning (big mistake). As a first project, I'm satisfied with what I managed to complete, but I'll always cringe a little when I think back to how I took on this project.

Sudan looks to pyramids to attract tourism — and hard currency
MEROE (Sudan), Nov 15 — Portuguese architect Tania Monteiro and her husband are almost alone as they tour Sudan’s pyramids, a world-class attraction long neglected by the world.
“People are really, really nice, always very welcoming,” Monteiro said on a recent visit to Meroe, an ancient city on the east bank of the River Nile about 200km northeast of the capital Khartoum.
Sudan has more — though smaller — pyramids than Egypt, but attracted only about 700,000 tourists in 2018 compared to some 10 million in its northern neighbour.
Conflicts and crises under veteran ruler Omar al-Bashir, a tough visa regime and a lack of roads and decent hotels outside Khartoum have made Sudan an unlikely tourist destination.
But Bashir lost power in April, and the new civilian transition government is easing visa rules to attract more visitors with their hard currency to places such as the Royal Pyramids of Meroe. A film crew was shooting a promotional video for a travel agency in Khartoum.
Like the Egyptians, the Nubian Kush dynasty that ruled in the area some 2,500 years ago buried members of the royal family in pyramid tombs.
Near Meroe’s pyramids lie an array of temples with ancient drawings of animals and the ancient city of Naga, and there are more pyramids further north at Jebel Barka.
Rise in tourist numbers
The new government has already started relaxing the visa system, including dropping a permit required for travel outside Khartoum, said Graham Abdel-Qadir, undersecretary of the ministry of information, culture and tourism.
“There has been already a rise of tourists in October and November thanks to the new system,” he told Reuters.
Arrivals fell this year because of unrest but numbers are expected to exceed 900,000 next year and might reach up to 1.2 million in 2021, he said.
Sudan needs tourists after decades of isolation and hyperinflation. This week the pound fell on the black market to 81 per dollar. The official rate is 45.
At Meroe, thanks to money from Qatar and German expertise, a visitor’s centre has been set up explaining the history of Sudan and the pyramids. There are walking tracks and a new reception centre.
Visitors can for first time enter the pyramids’ interior and will soon be able to go into tombs underneath, part of Qatar’s US$135 million (RM561 million) aid. Several pyramids will be restored after decades of neglect.
Sudanese tourists are also coming. — Reuters

US Air Force Chief of Staff calls for Gulf Arab unity to counter Iran
by https://www.dawn.com/authors/422/reuters, ReutersUnited States Air Force Chief of Staff David Goldfein on Saturday pressed Gulf Arab states to reconcile differences and unify military capabilities as tensions with Iran simmer.
Washington sees an ongoing dispute that Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and non-Gulf state Egypt have with Qatar as a threat to efforts to contain Iran and has pushed for a united front.
“When a missile or a UAV (drone) is en route from Iran that is not the time to reconcile past grievances. That time is now. Today,” Goldfein told an air chiefs conference in Dubai.
The US blames Iran for a series of attacks in the Gulf over the summer, including the September 14 missile and drone attack on Saudi Arabia that temporarily shutdown half the kingdom’s oil production. Tehran denies involvement.
Washington has unsuccessfully tried to mediate the dispute, in which the four nations have severed political, trade and transport ties with Qatar since mid-2017 over accusations it supports terrorism.
Doha denies the charge and says the embargo aims to impinge on its sovereignty.
The United States is allied to all six Gulf states. Qatar hosts Al-Udeid air base, the largest US military facility in the region, while Bahrain is home to the Navy’s Fifth Fleet.
“No one country has everything it needs to defend itself but together we have exactly what we need for collective defense,” Goldfein said.
“We have the power to begin this right now as we face a common adversary who seems committed to malign behavior across the region.”
Emphasising the principle of collective security, Goldfein said the best chance to defend the UAE could be from Qatar or neighboring Oman.
“Neighbors to the right and to the left who by geometry-alone have a better shot,” he said.

Drawing Project Guide
View the DemoDay 1
Morning Session
-
If you haven't already done so, install
Node.js and
yarn (
npm install --global yarn
). -
Download the
starter code. After unzipping, run
yarn
to install dependencies. -
Create an HTML, CSS, and TypeScript (
src/index.ts
) file. Connect these files together so that aconsole.log
displays in the JavaScript console. Runyarn dev
to compile your TypeScript and start a local server. - In your HTML, add a canvas element. Then, write a TypeScript function to return that element.
- Add radio buttons for the different tools: rectangle, circle, and pencil. Write a function to read the currently selected tool from the DOM.
- Add 2 input elements of type color: one for stroke color and one for fill color. For both input elements, whenever the input value changes, store the updated value in a TypeScript variable. (It's fine if you don't finish, these aren't essential)
Afternoon Session
- Define types for
Point
andRect
. -
Define a
Shape
interface. DefineRectangleShape
,EllipseShape
, andPolylineShape
— you can choose whether to usetype
,interface
, orclass
for these, but they should all conform toShape
. -
Hardcode an example rectangle, ellipse, and polyline in a new array
of
Shape
. -
Write a
Drawing
class. This class should have adraw
method or property that draws an array of shapes onto the canvas. Start by drawing the hardcoded array.
Day 2
Morning Session
- Download the zip from slack 🙈
Afternoon Session
- Implement the ellipse tool
-
Implement the pencil tool. Consider using an array of
Point
objects to store the line as it's drawn. Use a thecanvas
methodsbeginPath
,moveTo
, andlineTo
. -
Handle touch events in addition to mouse events.
There are analogous touch events for all the mouse events we use:
touchstart
,touchmove
,touchend
.You can access touch coordinates using, e.g.:
event.changedTouches[0].clientX
See also: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Touch_events -
Cancel the drag if the user releases the mouse outside the canvas
element. Consider adding a
mouseup
event listener ondocument
to do this.


MOHANDAS KARAMCHAND GANDHI
The man who inspired movements for civil rights and freedom in the world.
Karamchand Gandhi, a lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist, and political ethicist.
In the memory of Mahatma Gandhi, here are some intresting facts that one might not know about him :
- Gandhi was not the best student. Although he was known for being highly ethical with good English skills, he was considered a mediocre student in math and poor in Geography. He also had bad handwriting, which he was embarrassed about.
- Gandhi was a teenage newlywed. He was only 13 years old when he married his 14-year-old bride Kasturba in 1882. The young couple weren't too fond of each other but later found common ground. The death of their first child made him a strong opponent of child marriage.
- Gandhi spoke English like an Irishman. (One of his first English teachers was from Ireland.)
- Gandhi's civil disobedience was inspired by American Transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau, whose famous essay "Civil Disobedience," he read while he was in prison.
- Gandhi's activism started in South Africa. Having a hard time finding work as a lawyer in India, Gandhi traveled to South Africa in 1893, where he was given legal work through an Indian firm. It was there that he and his fellow Indians encountered constant discrimination by the Dutch and the British, which in turn, inspired him to fight for their rights. During his time in South Africa, where he was imprisoned many times, he developed his concept of peaceful resistance and "satyagraha" (firmness in truth).
- In 1930 Gandhi became the first and only Indian (so far) who has been distinguished with the "Time Person of the Year" title.
- Gandhi never won a Nobel Peace Prize, despite being nominated five times.
- Gandhi didn't like his photograph taken, yet he became the most photographed person of his era.
- Gandhi and Leo Tolstoy regularly corresponded with each other.
- Among Gandhi's many admirers were Albert Einstein and Ford.
- Gandhi wrote a letter to Hitler, addressing him as "Dear Friend," and beseeched him to stop the war. Hitler never wrote back.
- Gandhi's funeral procession was almost 5 miles long.

Before I switched to Firefox, I was using SlimBrowser.
Though comparably sucky (no Greasemonkey!), it has something Firefox doesn’t: an autologin feature. Basically you fill out a log-in form on some page, select a menu command, and an autologin will be created. Running that autologin, e.g. through something similar to Firefox bookmark keywords, will direct you to that page, fill out the form and submit it.
Firefox can auto-fill form values, but doesn’t submit the form afterwards. Though that’s easily greasemonkeyed, it only works if you’ve a single account.
About a year ago, I first released the Autologin userscript, that worked somewhat like the SlimBrowser autologin.
Today, I updated the script, making it a lot easier to use.
With the new script, you can add an autologin by simply filling out the log-in form, making sure the focus (typically the caret) is in the form, and selecting Tools > User Script Commands > Create autologin from form
. Previously, you had to poke through the page source and compose the autologin URL yourself.
Behind the code
Detecting the focused form with JavaScript was pretty interesting.
There is, to my knowledge, no obvious way to check for focus on a form (or otherwise) element.
One way of achieving this would be to add focus
event handlers to every form element, so that every time a form element gains focus, it stores itself into some variable.
I went with another, rather clever solution. The idea is to use the CSS :focus
pseudo-class to set some attribute value on the focused element, and then sniff for that attribute.
This idea was suggested by ecmananut. In the original suggestion, the dummy attribute to set was azimuth (being unlikely to clash with actual attributes set); for whatever reason, using that particular attribute didn’t work, so I went with background-attachment:fixed
instead. Though less uncommon than azimuth
, it’s probably very rare that the background-attachment
of a (non-textarea) form field is set to fixed
.
The pertinent code follows. with_each()
wraps a for
loop applying a callback function to each element matched by some XPath expression.

The Choking GameChildren grow increasingly resourceful with each passing day. They don't require fancy battery-operated toys, bleepity-bloop video games or Pokémon cards to have a good time. Those things are expensive. How's a kid gonna secure that kind of money? The best things in life are free after all. If you're a young person who's into extreme sports, hangin' out with trusted friends and kickin' back for good clean fun without cigarettes, drugs or alcohol -- you can achieve a natural high by playing the choking game. The choking game is suitable for one or more players aged 6-15. Any quiet room in your house, tool shed, or garage can be turned into a choking arena. The game requires a fair amount of concentration, so lock the door firmly behind you and crank up the iTunes. The simplest props located right inside one's own home usually work the best. Have one player bring a length of cord, maybe an Ethernet cable or jump rope. Christmas ribbons work well, but they need to be thick, double-weave, and plenty strong. Surely somewhere in the rear of dad's closet there's a necktie which hasn't been worn in several decades. If you or your neighbor has a dog, ask an adult if you can borrow the leash. Like Chinese Checkers, many different variations of the choking game exist -- but they all follow the same basic format. What's the first rule of the choking game? Everyone playing must get choked at least once. Players can draw names from a hat, take turns in alphabetical order, spin a simple rainbow dial or roll dice to establish who gets choked in what order. It's considered good form to let new or inexperienced players go first. Players use their hands, their arms, or props against the neck, to cut off the flow of oxygen to the head. When the pressure is finally released, the blood rushes back to the brain. The object of the game is to secure a level of asphyxiation which causes a fun tingle -- but not paralysis, death or permanent disability. The first player to get so high he or she passes out is the winner! If you suffer from asthma, you're likely to win the choking game over and over, so play fair. Always let less experienced participants on your team have a go first. The choking game has a rich and varied history dating back several generations. As early as the late 1800s, the choking game was referred to as Harvey Wallbanger -- named after a cocktail for grownups made from vodka or gin, orange juice, and Galliano. Pre-teen students sneaking cloves behind the Victorian preparatory portables might be seen clamping each other's necks and "banging" them up against a wall or a tree. To this day, kids genuinely appear to love the choking game as they might any national pastime. It gives players a decent head rush, causing a momentary sense of floating or flying. It's a fun, easily affordable truth-or-dare thrill ride. In groups, it's universally lauded as more than amusing to witness fellow players stumbling around, hyperventilating as they lose consciousness, making funny choking faces, watching their eyeballs roll around, falling down, and generally behaving in a silly manner. For players completely unfamiliar (or uncomfortable) with drugs, the choking game approximates a mild stoner euphoria for a few brief seconds. Meanwhile, party poopers like Sheriff Don Hunter from the the Collier County Sheriff's Office in Naples, Florida believes the choking game is actually life-threatening. "Kids have no idea how dangerous this activity is -- and they are unaware of the potentially deadly consequences." Hunter has studied the choking game phenomenon for many years. He cites players as young as 6 or 7, who lack sufficient resources to indulge in more traditional highs like drugs or alcohol. Individuals who play the choking game are "thrill seekers," Hunter warns. Children play the game mostly out of peer pressure or curiosity about their developing bodies and the associated feelings which come from experimentation. The activity is considered "cool" and "risky". Jean Porrazzo of The Enterprise news publication in Boston quotes statistics as recent as February of 2006, which claim 500 to 1000 deaths are reported each year as the result of recreational choking. Many of these deaths are initially reported as suicides. Both Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Phil have devoted multiple segments to address the phenomenon, each focusing primarily on Disastrous Outcomes. Message boards are clogged with misspelled missives from outraged parents, many of whom are shocked and deeply saddened to learn about "the Choacking Game". Bill Colburn, the police chief in the New Hampshire county where 14-year-old Rodney Webster died from choking-related asphyxiation told The Guardian that attempts to warn parents might serve only to publicize the choking game further. "I have grave concerns [about that], and that's why I'm very reluctant to talk with journalists like yourself," he said. "I really don't want to sensationalize this." In 1999, a 15-year-old British pupil at Eton in Berkshire died from playing the English version of the choking game. He was found hanging from a dressing-gown cord. During a school investigation, the headmaster determined that anywhere from 8 to 10 pupils had been involved. One popular 15-year-old female student in Lawrence, Kansas was found dead in her bedroom as the result of compression of the neck. A report by the Lawrence Journal World revealed that the girl had wrapped a plastic-coated bicycle chain lock around her neck, looped the chain over a dresser drawer, and seated herself in a position that cut off her air supply. Another 15-year-old, a sophomore Danielle Hibler at Canon-McMillan High School near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania wrote an article entitled "A Dangerous Game Exposed" -- summarily cut from the paper at the request of the vice principal. "She put a big X on the first page," Danielle said. "I was upset about it." Angered by the decision, Danielle went to Assistant Principal Marella Kazos, who defended the decision. The day her story was banned, she went home to see news reports about the death of a 13-year-old who died from the game. Like Sleepy Smurf, the boy was found "blue and unresponsive". Journalist Hibler has since proclaimed her First Amendment rights have been violated. Choking games are marketed in a variety of kid-friendly flavors like an underground street drug, complete with a full suite of cool-sounding, parent-proof nicknames. Airplaning, American Dream, Black out, Black Hole, Breath Play, California High, Choke Out, Cloud Nine, Fainting, Flatliner, Funky Chicken, Hanging, Hyperventilation, Knockout, Pass-out, Natural High, Rising Sun, Space Cowboy, Space Monkey, Suffocation Roulette, Tingle, and The Willies. Any one of these elite titles might easily be patented, packaged and distributed by Milton Bradley, Parker Bros., or Wizards of the Coast. Are you lonely and sad on the playground, tired of practicing the choking game all by yourself? Nothing's stopping you from forming a choking club in your school, church group or community youth center. Set up an intramural Cholympics, even -- or solicit volunteers for a donation foundation like Chokes For Strokes And Just Plain Folks. Online resources normally intended for concerned parents can help preadolescents easily spot fellow choking chums from across a crowded little league field! Here's what to look for in a potential partner: 1. Unexplained marks or bruises on the neck. Sounds like every suburban soccer mom in town! Everyone's passed out
around here! You can also use your family's home computer to locate new friends.
On message boards across the country, innovative American youth regularly come
together to share unique tips and tricks which make the choking game more interesting,
more exciting, and ten times more in-your-face, seņor dude with a 'tude! Like Ferek420, who
anonymously posts instructions for those who "want to not die". Let's
read. Thanks, a big tip of the hat to Ferek420. And here's another great tip from Rad McAwesome, the Choking Chipmunk: Always Clear Your Browser History! |

Historical Perspectives on Races
This section provides a statistical look at many of the major races around the world. National championship series are listed under National Championships.
Race Winners. We try to list the male and female winners for each year the race has been in existence. For Olympic events and various championships, gold, silver, and bronze medal winners are listed as known.
National Records. All current national records that were set in this race and that meet the standards for inclusion in the ADR database are listed.
Prize Money. The total prize money awarded to runners in the ADR database is shown by sex and combined. This may not represent the actual prize money purse for several reasons. The prize money distribution may not be known to us or may be incomplete. Prize money may also have been distributed to runners who do not qualify for inclusion in the ADR database. Prize money awarded in currencies other than US$ and in gold bullion have been converted to US$ at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of the event.
Race Time Bias. The race time bias is calculated from a regression analysis of a runner's performances within one year of the race date. The difference between a runner's actual time and that calculated by the regression is determined. Generally, five or more such differences are averaged to provide the race time bias. If there are fewer than five such comparisons, the race time bias is not computed. Race time biases are calculated separately for men and women.
The race time bias is a measure of how fast (negative bias) or slow (positive bias) the race was. Year-to-year fluctuations are largely determined by weather conditions. The average race time bias generally reflects the difficulty of the course and typical weather conditions.
Competitive Level. The competitive level of a race is determined on the basis of the competitive point levels of the five highest ranked runners going into the race. It is standardized so that it nominally ranges from a maximum of 1000 to a minimum of zero altho occasionally values may exceed these limits. International level races generally have competitive levels above 600 points; national level races generally have competitive levels between 300 and 600 points; regional level races generally have competitive levels below 300 points.
Quality Performances. For standard distance events, the number of performances achieved in the race over all of the years is provided for a range of time standards. For example, the number of men's performances for a marathon under 2:07, 2:08, 2:09,......,2:20 are shown to the extent contained in the ADR database.
Finishers. When this data is provided and is reasonably complete, the number of finishers for each year and other related information is provided.
Course History. When this data is available, changes in the course are documented and certifications are noted. Start/finish separation and net elevation change are also provided where available.

The ARRS is always looking for data to make our statistics as complete and
accurate as possible. Please send corrections and/or additions to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or mail hard-copy to Ken Young,

DstClip: TRect;

SrcRect: TRect;
StretchFilter: TStretchFilter;

= nil);
StretchTransfer is similar to StretchBlt or StretchDIBits functions from WindowsGDI. This procedure performs copying and, if necessary, stretching of the bitmap fragment specified by SrcRect into location in Dst specified by DstRect. This operation is constrained to the DstClip rectangle specified in the destination bitmap coordinates.
For more information on the stretch filters take a look here.
Unlike in BlockTransfer function, SrcRect must lie inside the Src bitmap boundaries, otherwise function will generate an exception. The result is not specified when transferring data inside the same bitmap (Src=Dst) and if in the same time SrcRect intersects with DstRect. In this case it is recommended to use a temporary bitmap buffer.
This routine used in TCustomBitmap32.Draw and TCustomBitmap32.DrawTo methods.


Ernakulam or Cochin/Kochi is a modern city where shopping markets, cinema complexes,industrial buildings, amusement parks,marine drive, etc are located.It is also the commercial and IT hub of Kerala.

Mexican millionaires raping, slaughtering women
observer.guardian.co.uk | Submitted by: Otis Criblecross
"Ciudad Juarez is known as 'the city of the dead girls'. In 10 years almost 400 women have been murdered in this city on the border between Mexico and El Paso, Texas, and the killings continue... more than a third of the women were raped before death. Most victims are tortured and mutilated.  The bodies are then dumped in wasteland... 'Five men from Juarez and one from Tijuana who get together and kill women in what can only be described as blood sport. Some of those involved are prominent men with important political connections - untouchables.' [Newspaper journalist Diana Washington Valdez] alleges at least 100 women have been killed by these men, of whom all but one are multi-millionaires. They have political connections going all the way to President Vicente Fox, and some have allegedly made contributions to Fox's presidential campaign."

"Cuban President Fidel Castro has praised California Governor-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger's muscles but wonders how much brain power the former Mr. Universe has. 'To judge from the photographs, he has a lot of muscle, but they have not tested him to see how much muscle he has in the brain,' the bearded revolutionary quipped during a five-hour speech on Friday evening closing a Latin American social sciences conference. 'He way well have more force in the arms than in the brain.'"

New Delhi up to asses in monkeys
Wire Services | Submitted by: Jim Jones
"In a capital city where cows roam the streets and elephants plod along in the bus lanes, it's no surprise to find government buildings overrun with monkeys. But the officials who work there are fed up. They've been bitten, robbed and otherwise tormented by monkeys that ransack files, bring down power lines, screech at visitors and bang on office windows... Last year the monkeys made their presence felt by hanging from window ledges and screeching at reporters arriving for a news conference with visiting U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld."

Nudist restaurant opens in Key West
Miami Herald | Submitted by: Juan Motaim
"The debut of Naked Lunch highlights the growing demand for spots that cater to nude heterosexuals. Garden of Eden is well known for it.  But Naked Lunch might claim bragging rights as the country's first stand-alone clothing-optional restaurant. Many nudist resorts have restaurants where people can take it all off, but neither the International Naturists Association nor the American Association for Nude Recreation knows of another clothing-optional restaurant smack dab in the middle of a city."

Bush unhurt by hysterical woman driver
Chicago Sun-Times | Submitted by: Tim Howard
"A woman said to have 'snapped' from stress drove her car with three children inside past a police checkpoint Saturday and rammed it into an arena where President Bush had given a speech. Bush was unharmed and authorities said later she had never intended to hurt the president. Authorities swarmed the car with weapons drawn and took away the driver and her children. Secret Service and local law enforcement investigators concluded after interviewing her that she had no intention of harming the president, said Ann Roman, a Secret Service spokeswoman. A law enforcement official identified the driver as Betina Mixon, 29, of Horn Lake. Mixon, a nurse's aide and the mother of three sons, had been under stress recently because of marital problems and a hysterectomy, said her friend Amy Graves, of Walls."

Death toll continues to climb in Iraq
CNN | Submitted by: smiling_horsecunt
"U.S. officials, responding to the deadliest day for U.S. troops in Iraq since President Bush declared the end of major combat on May 1, are vowing to finish the job and beat back insurgents. The high cost of that effort was made clear Sunday as 16 soldiers died when a U.S. Army transport helicopter went down west of Baghdad... The military death toll Sunday was second only to March 23, the day 29 American troops died in combat in and around the southern city of Nasiriya - 11 Army soldiers in the ambush of a convoy of the 507th Maintenance Company and 18 U.S. Marines in a battle on the outskirts of town. In Washington, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said the people resisting the U.S.-led occupation and the establishment of a new government in Iraq are 'going to be beaten eventually.'"

armytimes.com | Submitted by: Otris Criblecross
"Shortly before dawn on Aug. 28, an M1A1 Abrams tank on routine patrol in Baghdad 'was hit by something' that crippled the 69-ton behemoth... According to an unclassified Army report, the mystery projectile punched through the vehicle's skirt and drilled a pencil-sized hole through the hull... Experts believe whatever it is that knocked out the tank in August was not an RPG-7 but most likely something new - and that worries tank drivers."

Smithsonian's lame attempt to downplay Enola Gay
AZ Central | Submitted by: Tim Howard
"When Smithsonian Institution officials unveiled a home for the World War II bomber Enola Gay in August, they had hoped to avoid the kind of controversy that had plagued efforts to exhibit the airplane that carried the first atomic bomb... Scholars, writers and activists have signed a petition criticizing the exhibit for labeling Enola Gay as 'the largest and most technologically advanced airplane for its time' without mentioning that it dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. 'You wouldn't display a slave ship solely as a model of technological advancement,' said David Nasaw, a cultural historian at the City University of New York Graduate Center and one of 100 petition signers. 'It would be offensive not to put it in context.'"

Rumsfeld unclear on mojo concept
Straits Times | Submitted by: kade
"Donald Rumsfeld says he does not know whether he has lost his mojo... 'Have you lost your mojo?' a reporter asked him during a Pentagon briefing. Mr Rumsfeld said he has not consulted a dictionary - as he did for words such as 'slog', about which he has sparred with reporters - but has spoken with an aide who had. 'And they asked me that, and I said, "I don't know what it means." And they said, "In 1926 or something, it had to do with jazz music."'

Coming soon: robo-sphincter
BBC | Submitted by: Tim Howard
"People with urinary incontinence could one day use a remote control to keep their bodily functions in check. Scientists in Australia say they are close to making replacement sphincters operable by remote control... A small electrical stimulator, similar to a heart pacemaker, is also implanted to give the user control over the muscle. The patient can then use a remote control to operate the muscle when they wish to go to the bathroom."
